Nanotechnology is a new scientific and engineering discipline of study, design and building materials and devices whose structures and components exhibit novel and significantly improved physical, chemical and biological properties, phenomena and processes to nanometer scale (10-9 m)1. In short history of nanotechnology the main events were: (1) in 1959, Nobel Prize physicist Richard Feyman pondered the physical limits of machinery2 as we might build it, (2) the invention of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM)3 by Gerd Binning and Heinrich Rohrer at IBM’s Zurich Research Labs in 1981. (3) in 1985 and 1991, discovering fullerenes4 and carbon nanotubes5 as nanomaterials by Kroto and Iijima research teams respectively, (4) Lee research team invented a bandgap modulation of carbon nanotubes by encapsulated metallofullerenes in 20016, (5) Iijima built logic gates and memory cells based on endohedrall  C60/nanotube electromechanical transistors in 20007, (6) Wang research team present experimental evidences of violations of the second law of thermodynamics for nanosystems and short time scales in 20028.  

Nanomedicine has been defined as application of nano-scale scientific knowledge and technologies to the practice of medicine9. The creation  of nanodevices such as nanosensors, nanochips and nanorobots capable to performe diagnostic and therapeutic functions in vivo is a destination within the emerging field of nanomedecine. However, a new scientific knowledge based on nanotechnology give us a new biophysical approach in biomedicine. Nanotechnolgy open not only the question of violation of the second law of thermodynamics, but both what is photon and speed of light for nanosystems in short time scales. Based on these new knowledge we have considered two phenomena: (1) photon entanglement between molecular crystal of C60 and clathrin, and (2) biophysical mechanism of taxol influence on microtubules.

In the first case, the preliminary experiments have been done to influence of sunlight and polarization light (Zepter BIOPTRON lamp) on human brains trough eyes.10 Brain activity (EEG) has identified before any influence of light (close eyes), and after influence of three minutes of sunlight and polarization light in, with and without thin film of C60. We have found a big difference between EEG signals, what can be explain as a influence of harmonized  light when it transmitted trough thin film of C60. Our consideration led us to explanation that during light transmission trough thin films of C60 (harmonization photon angular momentum by golden mean law) simultaneously produces harmonization of energy states of clathrins on synapses. Bearing in the mind that clathrin and C60 are two quantum systems, with identical symmetry properties, they are produced entanglement (the state in which two quantum systems in indeterminate states are linked so that measuring or manipulating one system instantaneously manipulates the second11). Photon angular momentum interacted on nanometar scale with  C60 angular momentum ( C60 is a nanometer in diameter with both angular rotation of 3x1010 s-1 in crystal state and structural-energy properties by golden mean law) and in symmetry identical quantum system, chlatrin, produced entangled quantum states. Since neurotransmitters are storage in clathrin cages and their rhythm of open-close has influence on synaptic activities and EEG signals. We belive that  entanglement and clock synchronization of two quantum systems, can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic methods in neuromedicine, including brain cancer.

In second case we considered the mechanism of taxol influence on microtubules during cell division. In order to understand that mechanism we have developed molecular nanotechnology analytical methods to investigate it.10 Tubulin-microtubule system has been considered as a nanosystem from structural, energy and information points of view. Energy states of a-b tubulin subunits we consider as deterministic chaotic crystal which determinate state of packing of tubulin subunits into microtubules. Taxol change energy state of a-b tubulin subunits in spindle microtubules and reorganized them from active energy-information packing form, 13 (8,5),  to passive one,13 (13,0). From functional point of view passive form of microtubules is frozen state, what is known as “microtubule stabilization”. Unfunctionality of microtubules stop cell division and taxol has been using as the breast cancer drug since 1994. It is possible to develop a new device for cell division programming, based on biophysical mechanism of taxol influence on helical organization of microtubules. However, nanosystem approach of microtubules led us to deep understanding of photon itself, existence of photon’s gravitational field (Rama mass) and photon helical travel phenomena. Diameter of microtubules of 30 nm, with 13 helical protofilaments, and microtubule-MAP structural-wave length of 96 nm classify microtubules as a perfect gravity-electromagnetic biological nanodevices. Zero charge of photon, polarization of light, superluminal signals, light interference and diffraction of light are all explainable in a simple way if light travel by screw symmetry law.

Nanotechnology as a new scientific and engineering paradigm will have significant role in future civilization development. Some possible applications are considered.10,12,13
